The set is designed to create optimal distance gapping (12 yards) between clubs. Weighting is higher in short irons for more workability and gets progressively lower and more rearward in long irons for forgiveness. The sole design (raised in center, recessed in heel and toe) reduces drag and should increase playability.

Each iron individually engineered, resulting in the enhancement of multiple club properties that promote distance, uniform distance-gaps, increased playability and better sound and feel Multi-Functional Sole lowers the CG and reduces turf-drag to make it easy to launch shots high and long, while the Inverted Cone in each clubface is strategically sized and shaped CG location in each head is precision-placed to optimize long-, middle- and short-iron flight; high-COR faces promote fast ball speed for long distance in the long-irons.

For example, the faces of the Burner 2.0 long-irons are thinner than the faces of the original Burner long-irons, which should help golfers create more ball speed and distance. The weight saved by making the faces thinner has been redistributed to the lower section of the clubs, near the heel and toe areas, which Wahl says should make them more forgiving too.

At the same time, the faces of the short irons are thicker than the original Burner's, and the heads are smaller and feature thinner top lines. Doing this puts a greater emphasis on accuracy and control at address, but also puts more weight directly behind the ball to enhance feel.

I tried out the TaylorMade Burner 2.0 Irons and fell in love with them. I now use it instead of my Taylor Made R7. I feel that I hit the ball cleaner with it and that my ball goes truer and farther with them. I also think that it is a little easier to square the clubface so I can swing a little harder and still hit the ball solidly. However I know some people who also like it and some who don't.
